2016 Jaguar XE 2.0L Diesel · PJ66 JKX

The vehicle's MOT record indicates a clearly deteriorating maintenance trend, with the most recent test on 2025-11-15 failing to meet safety standards despite 98,424 miles. This failure was triggered by severe tread damage on both front and rear tyres, where the tread depth fell below the 1.6mm requirement, a condition that carries a serious safety advisory. The previous test on 2024-10-10 was passed, but the gap between the September 2025 test and the October 2024 test suggests that basic upkeep was skipped, as the tyre wear accelerated significantly over the intervening months. Regarding the mileage pattern, the vehicle is approximately ten years old with 98,424 recorded miles, which aligns with typical usage for that age group. However, the data suggests rapid accumulation of wear that may have resulted from a lack of regular servicing. The gap between the September 2025 test and the October 2024 test represents a period of significant mileage increase without corresponding tyre replacement or suspension adjustments, indicating that the vehicle may have been driven in conditions that accelerated component wear. Consequently, the buyer must inspect the vehicle for structural integrity and mechanical risks, particularly concerning the suspension bushes and coil springs, which are prone to failure under the current load. The brake system must also be thoroughly examined for corrosion and wear, as the thin brake pads and pitted disc have been flagged, suggesting potential binding or reduced friction. Given the combination of these recurring faults and the lack of recent maintenance, the vehicle is not roadworthy and requires urgent professional assessment before any further driving is permitted.
